Comments Thread For: Golovkin: Mayweather Will Fight Again, ‘Hope’ It's Me

[j0zef]

so long as we can also stop acting as if GGG isn't afraid of Andre Ward right now and his true goal isn't unifying the MW division.

This has nothing to do with Ward or MW division. Getting a fight with Mayweather would be a dream for anyone - it's immediate riches and fame. GGG would cancel his fight with Lemieux, and Canelo would cancel his fight with Cotto if it meant a guaranteed shot at Mayweather.

A fight with an undefeated, richest, multi division champion will put ANYONE's goals on hold for one fight. Everyone from Chocolatito to Kovalev would try to make weight to get into the ring with Mayweather.

So he'll only move up or down if it's against a retired WW, a retired SMW, or an uncommitted to the sport guy who has a famous father.

Seems legit. Monster quality this guy has

Lmao damn spot on post this is sad on his part but soon ward name brung up I want to unify mw

Getting a fight with Floyd would be a dream for anyone at or belwow his weight-no question.

Getting a fight with Floyd when you are the MW champ (yes I know floyd is the champ at 154 but we know he is still a ww) is silly. No Kovalev isn't dreaming of going to 154 for Floyd-don't make ****** points like this.

You want people to look at GGG and judge his actions honestly. All I am asking is you do the same thing as well.

GGG wants the big money fight over tougher "dare to be great fights". I think he should be called the same thing as other fighters that poster feel do the same thing.

Is that wrong?

I don't even let it bother me anymore. The guys fans aren't demanding much from him. They're set on video game kos and espn2 fnf failures as his opponents

GGG is giving Floyd a handout to become great. Just like Hagler was giving Duran an opportunity to show the world how great he was.

Whether Floyd will take this wonderful opportunity is yet to be seen. He missed out on Sergio who was there for the taking, which must upset Floyd as he is a cherry picker and that would have been a great cherry pick type win. There is no way Sergio could chase Floyd around the ring with that bad knee.

we all saw how long it took for floyd pac to happen and this is an even bigger risk for floyd no way this happens

Sorry dude, you can't have it both ways. If you think it's crazy for a MW (160) to want a fight with Floyd (148-154) == 12 pound difference at most , then it's just as crazy for Ward (172) to want a fight with Golovkin (160)==12 pound difference. If you think GGG shouldn't fight Mayweather then Ward shouldn't fight GGG.

However I still stand by my words - Mayweather is such a huge draw that even SMW-LHW would try to make the weight (most likely fail, but still).

I don't mean to offend you, but most people who hate GGG do not look at his actions honestly.
What he honestly is a 33 year old fighter whose prime is quickly running out. He wants to fight high reward fights since he was fighting absolute trash in Europe due to promotional issues, and is only now getting good fighters to fight him. Cotto is 34 and already talked about retirement. GGG has 2-3 more elite years after which he'll be considered old.

Ward is not a "dare to be great fight". It's just not. It's an extremely high risk and very low reward fight. He would be fighting a guy that outweighs him by 10 lbs, at a weight that's heavier than what he's always fought at and for almost no reward since Andre Ward is not popular anymore.
He literally has nothing to gain and everything to lose.

come on man please stop. Fighters always go up for a challenge, they do not often drop down for money. This is what I mean about being honest and having some integrity. if you wont, don't get mad when others don't as well.

Ward isn't at 172 just because he had his last fight there. he hasn't given up his SMW belts.

Canelo disagrees

He's already been in the wrong division for a few years now.


Same thing with JCC jr, except he was just as bad about it.

bumlovekin is right,he deserves a shot at a big paycheck,he beat the likes of geale and other taxi drivers so that alone is an HOF achievement..don't worry about ward bumlovekin he's too "big" for you..why fight people who don't drive taxis or cut hair. Bum-love-kin the casuals favorite
